The fact that the refs called that a fumble actually shows that they're pulling for the Eagles. They're trying to take Andy Reid's challenges away from him early so he can't make a dumbass decision in the 4th quarter
Why do we get rich gannon. What's the over under on how many times he's says, " that's something they have to work on".
It should have been obvious to Sanchez that it was blitz and he needed to get rid of the ball before the ball was snapped. He had plenty of time to throw the ball, he sat looked, looked, looked then the defender broke through. At that point he could have still thrown it away or do what other QBS do and Sanchez does not extend the play. Instead he chose option 3 just panic, freeze, stand there and wait to get hit. Now the first sack earlier in the game was not Sanchez's fault. he did the right thing on that play and pulled the ball in and protected it as he had it extended. I would have preferred that than trying to move out of the way. But almost every sack this year is on Sanchez because he panics and freezes in the pocket. Until he can beat or even threaten a blitz and stop freezing under pressure defenses will attack him without mercy on every passing situation knowing they have a chance for defensive TD.
